Purchased Safari Extensions Are Greyed Out
Hello apple community,
I am currently having issues turning on extensions for Safari. I tried multiple apps, this one I even purchased, but nothing is working. Help please!

Thank you for the answer, hc
I did look at the article you mentioned, but it just didn’t help for my situation as, like you said, it appeared I had no extensions downloaded. None of the extensions I saw in the extension browsing section of the App Store offered what I was looking for. (I know this solution may have worked for others, so thank you!)
However, I did get help from Apple Support through text and was able to solve the problem. My issue was that some of my Content and Privacy Restrictions under Screentime (in settings) were interfering with the app’s ability to work.
To solve the problem, I turned off content and privacy restrictions.
after turning off content and privacy restrictions, I could allow the content blocker app to block certain pages on safari.
then I turned content and privacy restrictions back on, and the app works just like it’s supposed to :)
